A must read article by @isilova.bsky.social!

"When universities start regulating not just what they say but what they teach, support and stand for – driven by fear rather than principle – they are no longer just reacting to political threats, they are internalizing them."

Universities in Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union thought giving in to government demands would save their independence

Before the Nazis, German universities were among the best in the world. Step by step, the universities gave up their independence until they were instruments of the state.
